Rodionenko: Komova’s not ready to compete yet

It is now official: Viktoria Komova will not compete at the Russian Cup that will take place later this month. Since Komova’s been back at the Round Lake, Valentina Rodionenko has been giving updates about Komova possibly competing on bars at the Russian Cup.

Today Viktoria Komova went on vacation to Turkey and Valentina Rodionenko told TASS that Komova is definitely not ready to compete soon and will only return to competition at the Voronin Cup:

“She will compete at the Voronin Cup in December. She’s simply not ready yet and she can’t show a weak performance”.

In a comment to R-Sport, Rodionenko added:

“The [Voronin Cup] competition is not a very high level, but she just needs it to get back into the competition mode. Right now she’s feeling good on beam and floor but she can’t yet restore her bars routine”.
